The CDC says evicting people could be detrimental to public health, and it will halt evictions in counties where virus cases are rising—covering 90 percent of the U.S. population. A study by the Aspen Institute says 6.5 million U.S. households are behind on rent, owing more than $20 billion to landlords.
